NEWS: Official Logo for the 4th Century Anniversary


Zejtun 1614 Logo FinalThis is going to be the official logo which will be used by Wirt iż-Żejtun to commemorate the 4th Century Anniversary of the 1614 Ottoman attack on iż-Żejtun.

This logo was designed by graphic artist Daniel Spagnol.  The logo shows the victory of the Zejtun citizens over the attack by the Turks in 1614.    The sword which is a representation of the Turks, is presented in red tonalities and rough brushed strokes, portraying blood and death.   On the other hand the ribbon in green tonalities representing the locality’s flag is wrapped around the sword emphasizing the victory over the Turks.

This logo will be used by Wirt iż-Żejtun during the activities and initiatives being planned for this year to commemorate this anniversary.
